I would have been compelled to give the voices character and inflection.Įxceptional look into a forgotten incident.ĭO NOT listen to the reviews saying this "wasn't scary" as that is not the point of this book (though I would argue it DOES get verrry creepy). Thorne was able to keep a straight face and continue narrating this particular passage in a completely neutral tone. She wasn't having it and no amount of logic and empathetic reasoning could convince her that maybe they should give it a try. Goodin and the paranormal investigator who was trying to convince them they should all seek counseling as living in the house was clearly traumatizing for them. SPOILER ALERT: My favorite passage was not one of the countless supernatural events occurring in the home, but rather, the conversation recorded between Ms. William Hall lays out what was available to him for his readers and leaves it to them to draw conclusions about the extraordinary and supernatural phenomena occurring in the Lindley Street home. If you want a neatly wrapped up story, you will be sorely disappointed.

Hall's book a great service with his excellent narration.


just Stephen Thorne's detached, neutral tone. At first I didn't know what to think of this as it wasn't your standard atmospheric story of a haunted house - no mood music, no inflection to heighten what should be scary or supernatural. It seems very scientific, not at all sensational.
